LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS Runs 8/14-22nd At The Aronoff Center

Jersey Productions (JP), is returning for its fourth season bringing quality theatre to the Greater Cincinnati area, and is delighted to announce the cast and staff for its August production, Little Shop of Horrors running August 14th-22nd at the Aronoff Center for the Arts. This year will mark Jersey Productions' second year at the Aronoff Center for the Arts as a resident company.

Little Shop of Horrors by composer Alan Menken and writer Howard Ashman, is a rock musical about a hapless florist shop worker who raises a plant that feeds on human blood. The music, composed by Menken in the style of early 1960s rock and roll, doo-wop and early Motown, includes several show-stoppers including "Skid Row (Downtown)", "Somewhere That's Green", and "Suddenly, Seymour", as well as the title song.

Director Gina Kleesattle says, ""Little Shop of Horrors is a great show because there really is something for everyone - interesting story, great 60's style rock/motown music, romance, murder and a great big plant puppet! What's not to love about that?!""
